Parmenides
Thanks for creating the Parmenides article — I have added it to the new pages list. One of the more notable of the ancient philosophers who have been missed here. ~ Lugh 16:38, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
 * I just want to add a further note of appreciation — I myself had been intending to get around to this for some time, but had been prevented by other priorities. Your selections are an interesting beginning. ~ Kalki (talk &middot; contributions) 17:33, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot. Now if only I could wipe Pythagoras clean and start again - most of the supposed "sources" there are just stupid! :) Singinglemon 15:32, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I confess I actually like the Pythagoras page, overall — but it could always use more quotes and better sourcing. Thanks for the creating the Anaxagoras page and posting it among the new pages — I have long been dissatisfied with the lack of the ancient philosophers here, but been too busy to attend to creating many of them myself. I certainly hope you stick around, and would love to have some idea of any current plans for a few more pages. Thanks again. ~ Kalki (talk &middot; contributions) 00:23, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
 * What I mean is that a lot of the Pythagoras "quotes" come from books with titles like "Bible of Reason (1831) by Benjamin F. Powell" and "The World's Laconics : Or, The Best Thoughts of the Best Authors (1853) by Everard Berkeley". There is not the slightest reason to suppose these quotes are remotely accurate or credible. Of course, there are probably no reliable Pythagoras quotes at all, since the ancient sources about him date from centuries after his time. But at the very least, a page of Pythagoras "quotes" should be derived from Diogenes Laertius, Iamblichus, Porphyry, and the other ancient writers who mention him. Simply quoting the "Vegetarian Times, No. 168 (August 1991), p. 4" just seems bizarre to me. Singinglemon 11:53, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Singinglemon. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Singinglemon~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:36, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
